I meant that instead of attaching rules they attach pathname/revision#
pairs, not a single revision number for the whole group. But I agree that
seems scary. Also, it makes a mess of the svn repository if it can't be all
checked out and used as a whole.

Dealing with metarules and modifications to them presents a problem in any
case. How do we deal with person X submitting a modification to metarule A
and proposed rule A1, while person Y submits a different modification to
metarule A and proposed rule A2 while person Z submits proposed rule A3 that
relies on the existing version of metarule A?
